So I noticed about once a month or so it was a good idea to tighten the heat shield bolts as they tend to come loose. Well the first time I tightened one of them it stripped with little force like it was made of butter, so I couldn't tighten that one no more so I decided to wait for it to loosen up and go buy a new one hopefully with a different pattern than stupid allan key.
Today I went for a ride and guess what I lost an end cap bolt and the other 2 were barely hanging on! Now this wouldn't be a problem but I've went all over town and I cannot find a replacement. This shouldn't happen with new gear. I know it's minor but I have to waste gas and time looking for some bolt that I apparently can't find no where. Anyways for anyone with a barkers set up check your bolts after every few rides so you don't lose you heat shield or end cap.
As for me hopefully I can find a replacement bolt with a bit harder searching. :steamed:
